What type of work have I done and who have I worked with?

My career background is very Corporate (working with Directors, VP’s, MD’s, etc.). It includes Executive Assistant, Personal Assistant, Marketing roles and lots of admin (which I love).

Since becoming a self-employed Virtual Assistant, I have worked with (amongst others) a print and design company, a gardener, a healer, a counselling student, a window shutters company, a nurse, a marketing company, and an electric heating company. I’ve also been VA to a VA for years now!

Most new clients involve using a new system as there are so many available! I pick them up quickly and love adding to my skill set.

To give you an idea of what clients have asked me to do, here are some of the tasks I have been asked to carry out:

• Email management

• Diary management

• Download Facebook and Instagram leads (of people requesting a quote) and schedule the survey appointments in client calendar

• Online research (e.g. steps to hiring/firing someone, steps to change limited company name, background information on companies and people, onboarding new employees)

• Source light fittings, wardrobes and kitchen cabinets

• Organise Google Drive

• Create Google Form and Google Docs digital checklist

• Learn ClickUp

• Tidy up blogs (grammar etc.)

• Facebook Group gatekeeper

• Transcribe (type up audio)

• Lots of proofreading

• Upload newsletters and emails to ActiveCampaign

• Work with a client in Airtable (pretty much all comms are in there!)

• Assist at in-person events

• Upload blogs to GoHighLevel (including finding suitable images to include)

• Schedule social media for TikTok, YouTube, LinkedIn

• Compile social media prompt calendars

• Research venues

• And much more besides!
